Looks cool. I hope they export these into Canada.

I don't like AK magwells. They should have switched to M16 style magwells.

Should have got rid of the reciprocating charging handle as well.

I wish the export variants of chinese guns weren't so shit. They look functional and solid in the hands of PLA soldiers but the international weapons are always shoddy.
I'm 99% sure this is intentional, and the PLA doesnt use the same guns they export, because it would be stupid to just sell your primary rifle to your enemy. Oh well

>>45
Maybe less practical but they look cool, lol

>>42
Are the variants just different barrel lengths?

>>47
Could they not just sell the same rifle but semi-auto only? If their competitors want to receive a Chinese rifle they can easily aquire one through other means surely, I mean there has got to be hundreds of millions of them in China.

>>47
>>50
they prolly just sell off the ones that didn't pass quality control lol

>>50
Sure, but thats not must what they do afaik

>>42
It's like they tried to combine the AK and AR together.
